A Wellness Retreat for your Dog!

Pet care experience

Facilities are stressful places for dogs. I offer a clean, calm environment for your best friend to relax in while you're away. ❤️ Hi there! My name is Samantha and I’m a force-free/ positive reinforcement dog trainer based out of Southfield, MI. I have been pet sitting full-time for over two years. Prior to pet sitting, I worked in an animal hospital where I helped take care of critically ill pets, and administer oral medications. I am trained in first aid and CPR. I have also fostered and rescued dogs out of Detroit. In my downtime, I study canine behavior through CATCH Canine Academy’s mentorship program.

This was our first time leaving our pup, so we were a little anxious. Samantha put our nerves to rest right away. Our pup was comfortable immediately. Sam sent pics and updates and went above and beyond when our girl had some stomach issues. Highly recommend Sam!

Samantha was able to accommodate us for a last minute trip and we’re so glad we found her! I could tell from the meet n greet they were instantly comfortable with her. Our dogs were super excited to see us upon pickup, but we could also tell they were happy and well-cared for after their long weekend with Samantha. 5 stars!

Our latest experience with Samantha was as fantastic as the previous times. She took great care of our cockapoo and was kind enough to send daily updates and photos. We hope she continues as a Rover host because we really feel fortunate to have found her. In addition to being knowledgeable about veterinary issues, she also kind and has a great connection with our pet. You couldn’t ask for better.
